Remove post if exist by title
I want to remove a post from PHP by title.
I have a code for publish or update if the post exist by title, but I don't know how to insert the wp_delete_post() function.
This is my actual code for publish or update if the post exist by title:
?php
// require wp-load.php to use built-in WordPress functions
require_once(/var/www/mysite.com/wp-load.php);
//Title
$TítleProduct = (Title Product 1);
//Desc
$Desc = (Product descripction 1);
// Register Post Data
$post = array();
$post['post_status'] = 'publish';
$post['post_type'] = 'post'; // can be a CPT too
$post['post_title'] = $TítleProduct;
$post['post_content'] = ($Desc);
$post['post_author'] = 1;
function wp_exist_post_by_title($title)
{
global $wpdb;
$return_id = $wpdb-get_row(SELECT ID FROM wp_posts WHERE post_title = ' . $title . ' post_type = 'post' , 'ARRAY_N');
if (empty($return_id)) {
return false;
} else {
return $return_id;
}
}
$id = wp_exist_post_by_title($post['post_title']);
if($id !== false)
{
$post['ID'] = $id[0];
$post_id = wp_update_post( $post );
} else {
$post['post_date'] = $my_post['post_date'];
$post_id = wp_insert_post( $post );
}
/*******************************************************
** SIMPLE ERROR CHECKING
*******************************************************/
$finaltext = '';
if($post_id){
$finaltext .= 'Se ha creado/actualizado correctamente el post '.$post['ID'].'.br';
} else{
$finaltext .= 'Something went wrong and I didn\'t insert a new post.br';
}
echo $finaltext;
?
I tried replacing wp_update_post for wp_delete_post and combinating with the wp_delete_post function but I don't know how combine it exacly, here is the wp_delete_post function code example:
function wp_delete_post( $postid = 0, $force_delete = false ) {
global $wpdb;
$post = $wpdb-get_row( $wpdb-prepare( SELECT * FROM $wpdb-posts WHERE ID = %d, $postid ) );
if ( ! $post ) {
return $post;
}
$post = get_post( $post );
if ( ! $force_delete ( 'post' === $post-post_type || 'page' === $post-post_type ) 'trash' !== get_post_status( $postid ) EMPTY_TRASH_DAYS ) {
return wp_trash_post( $postid );
}
if ( 'attachment' === $post-post_type ) {
return wp_delete_attachment( $postid, $force_delete );
}
/**

*
* @since 4.4.0
*
* @param bool|null $delete Whether to go forward with deletion.
* @param WP_Post $post Post object.
* @param bool $force_delete Whether to bypass the Trash.
*/
$check = apply_filters( 'pre_delete_post', null, $post, $force_delete );
if ( null !== $check ) {
return $check;
}
